    The west has stopped quietly committing genocide against the wishes of it’s people, started forcibly and loudly committing genocide against the desperate cries of it’s people.

      And Cenk still won’t change the name of his media organization from the perpetrators of the Armenian genocide he spent most of his life denying…

      Even know, he just admits the Aremenian genocide could be considered a genocide. But refusing to change the name of his company.

      I don’t know how or why genocide deniers are ever considered “the good guys”.

      Loads of conflicts is two groups of assholes fighting.

      But there are podcasters out there who don’t support any genocide too…

        Omg shut the fuck up, we know he’s a hypocrite. Everyone here knows this and agrees with you. But this is a much larger issue than one dildo’s genocide denial. You’re effectively muting discussion about ever-more authoritarian western governments unilaterally silencing dissent in favor of your pet soapbox. I’m willing to bet that everyone in this thread is 100% in agreement with you about Cenk but for the love of god please have a sense of priorities, talk about Cenk’s hypocrisy somewhere that your energy will actually make a difference and not incidentally make it look like you don’t give a fuck about Palestinian genocide (Because I’m guessing you do care about that [edit: Now in doubt]). Please.

          You’re effectively muting discussion

          No, I’m saying we shouldnt listen to a family of millionaires who made their money denying genocide on how bad genocide is…

          Finding someone who agrees no genocide is valid, isn’t a tall order.

          And speaking out against genocide denial, is never a bad thing

          I’m not just going to ignore it because your favorite streamer does it buddy

            I don’t even sub to Piker but you do know that he is at odds with his uncle over that and other issues, right? He would agree with your stance on the Armenian genocide. He didn’t leave TYT without reason. Anyway, the UK is picking and choosing which foreigners get to advocate which issues on UK soil in order to foment complicity with a current and ongoing genocide, and apparently you’re in favor of that so you can have a very lovely day, thank you (Edited previous removed comment in bold to comply with mod rules on “incivility”).
